We are at the early stages! Come help us figure out what it becomes.
The Founders Council is a weekly gathering for women in Melbourne's south-east who are building something — a business, a side project, a creative practice, an idea that keeps coming back.
It is not just a networking event. It is not a workshop. It is a council — a small room of women who show up weekly (or help out the one-off joiners to the group) to give and receive honest input from people who are in the same season of building but might be doing it alone.
You will meet other girls who are building something too, let's help each other out with whatever each of us is working on. Share your inputs and ideas. Because I believe we have so many skills and pieces of knowledge that can help the person next to you.
This can be your accountability group come when you can, touch base and keep yourself accountable with what you planned to build.
Session 4 will run like this:
We will start with a quick round of names and what everyone is working on — thirty seconds each.
Then the council opens. Anyone who wants to bring something gets fifteen minutes — a problem, a decision, a pitch to test, something they need honest eyes on. (You can also treat this as your accountability group where in your 15 minutes you can share what your plan is for this week. Then come again next week to check in and plan the next week) The group responds. Not with prescriptive advice. With real honest reactions from people who get it.
We close with each person naming one thing they are doing before next week. That is it. That is the accountability.
Then the last thirty minutes are open — coffee, conversation, the kind of talk that only happens when the room is right.
You do not have to share anything. Come and contribute to the group. Listen. Give your perspective on someone else's problem. That seat is just as valuable as any other.
